    Goats are pretty cute when they’re kids.

    • Count Potato

      Bah!

    • limey

      ??

    • Master JaimeRoberto (royal we/us)

      If Swiss were here, he’d tell you that puns are not the greatest of all time.

  2. limey

    I BELIEVE IN SPACE SMITH

    I just watched a video of a guy wretching for 4 minutes while he attempted (and failed) the sürstromming challenge. He tried to inflict it on his kids as well. I didn’t realise that a four minute video of a man wretching and vomiting on himself would be so much fun. His kids ran away.

    • KromulentKristen

      Link?

      • limey

        Unfortunately it was one of those forwarded to me on whatsapp.

      • KromulentKristen

        Was it a Scottish dude?

      • limey

        Yeah, you found it?

      • KromulentKristen

        Looks like it – watching now

      • KromulentKristen

        Thanks for ruining my Zoom makeup!

  3. limey

    It’s proving difficult to spot the goats at night.

  4. Yusef drives a Kia

    I like Mustard

    • Ted S.

      In the conservatory?

      • limey

        With the lead pipe.

      • kinnath

        Miss Scarlet

      • Gustave Lytton

        Mmmm… Lesley Ann Warren…

    • limey

      I like French’s but I have to remember to drain out the condensation from the bottle before I squeeze it. The mustard water phenomenon known only to squeezy bottles of French’s mustard.

      • juris imprudent

        Oh no, any squeeze bottle of mustard or ketchup seems prone to that.

      • limey

        I gotta have Heinz, or homemade ketchup. Store brand and off brand ketchups just aren’t good enough. I’ll skimp elsewhere for good ketchup. Never had that problem with it, even with store brand, though.

      • limey

        Haha. I’ve not heard that before.

      • OBJ FRANKELSON

        Consider that pilfered.

      • kinnath

        Condiments are a suspension, not a solution. Gravity separates the solids and the liquids. A little agitation solves the problem

      • commodious spittoon

        Link a Twitter posts before squeezing.

      • limey

        YOU ARE THE COMMENTER THEY WSRNED US AVOUUUTTT111!!!1!! PAY ATTENTION WERE LOSING OUR DENOCRACYHYHHGHHHSKSIEJDBDJDJDBDJDH

      • limey

        I know I know, but I don’t seem to have that problem with anything else store bought that isn’t a salad dressing of some sort, which you always have to shake. The water on the mustard I always drain off so it doesn’t go back into the mustard and thin it out.

      • Gustave Lytton

        Heinz > French’s. French’s has garlic in it.

      • Festus

        Shake it first you moron.

    • Fourscore

      I lived in Madison for 2 years, never heard of the Mustard Museum. Needs better marketing

      • Ted S.

        Yeah, but you’re old enough that you predate mustard.

  5. juris imprudent

    Attempting to Glib and Zoom simultaneously – probably not well. I’ll concentrate on drinking.

    • Ownbestenemy

      The only proper response.

  6. Nephilium

    So… which wine loving Glib was recently in New York City?

    • OBJ FRANKELSON

      Some one with a van.

      *Gestures with head and eyes towards OMWC.*

      Check to see if there is any Manischewitz left for confirmation.

      • juris imprudent

        I’m thinking he might borrow a rusty tin can lid from SP to ‘discuss’ this with you.

    • rhywun

      Ummm… inside job?

      PS. Not it. I haven’t set foot in Manhattan in thirteen months.

    • commodious spittoon

      flees to ‘parts unknown’

      Man, anywhere west of the Hudson really is the hinterlands to them.

    • Ted S.

      Doesn’t l0b0t stock liquor stores?

      • grrizzly

        l0b0t’s chain in Mass. doesn’t sell any alcohol at all. And it could, in principle.

    • Chafed

      Big City. High class store. High value items. I think it was slumbrew.

      • slumbrew

        I’m flattered by your take, but I don’t have that kind of storage space.

    • limey

      Your wife is a smart lady. You don’t just put that shit on twitter for free.

    • Hyperion

      My wife is obsessed with her Murikan accent. I keep telling her that it’s OK and no one cares.

      She’s now mastered difficult stuff like words with 3 consonants on the end, like ‘world’ and easier stuff like ‘them’ and all that.

      Now she just has difficulty in past, present, future tense stuff like ‘I’ve woken up’, ‘I awoke’, ‘I woke up’, ‘I’m awake’, ‘I will wake up’, ‘I’m waking up’, ‘I will wake up’, you know, stuff like that. Which I don’t get because stuff like that is WAY harder in any romance language.

      • juris imprudent

        You’re going to move a Brazilian woman to WV?

      • Hyperion

        Yeah, and she’s too excited, she’s now an official Trumptard redneck mountain woman. I’m the most lucky guy.

      • juris imprudent

        Where abouts? I’ve got friends in Richwood (very small town WSW of Snowshoe [man did I have that fucked up before I hit post]).

      • Hyperion

        Berkeley County. Martinsburg, Charles Town.

      • Hyperion

        Richwood is right in the center of the state. Someplace I’d definitely be concerned about internet access. But beautiful like most of the state.

      • Sean

        Pfft. How many guns does she own?

      • Hyperion

        All of them.

      • Tejicano

        Don’t bother coming back here looking for those words ’cause you can just consider them stolen.

      • limey

        Easier than moving a woman in a Brazilian-built VW.

      • limey

        Or giving a woman a Brazilian while moving in a VW.

      • limey

        Country roads, take me home…

      • Hyperion

        You know, and talk about exotic, almost no one has a West Virginia mountain woman, it’s just the next level of hot.

  7. Trigger Hippie

    From the previous article, for Muzzled Woodchipper:

    ‘Edibles hit me WAY harder, and for WAY longer.’

    This completely foreign to me. I’ve made brownies and cookies from THC based butter exceeding 30%. I’ve eaten 100mg gummies based off of Diamond crystals straight from Murder Mountain. My body just goes: “Meh.”

    Edibles are completely wasted on me.

    • commodious spittoon

      The last time I smoked was at a buddy’s house. We were hanging out on the patio, drinking and joking, I took a hit on the pipe and the next thing I know I’m sliding down the wall staring at the pavement and trying very hard not to spiral into some bizarre infinite consciousness recursion I was convinced would swallow me up.

    • KSuellington

      For me edibles are not recreational, they are sleep inducing. I’ll take one once a week when I’ve had a long day and just want to fall asleep on the couch to a movie. Within 45 minutes of even a 5mg gummi my eyes are at half mast and 20 min later I’m out for the count. Funny how different eating it versus smoking it is.

    • J. Frank Parnell

      My sister-in-law had a friend who was trying to get into the edible business and she gave me one of his test batches of candies. They didn’t hit me particularly hard, but they usually took hours to kick in and left me feeling strung out the next day.

      Actual commercial edibles, the cookies I tried were garbage but the gummies have been pretty good.

      My last time smoking was a couple years ago and was very similar to commodious’ experience – two hits off a joint and I couldn’t function the rest of the night.

      • rhywun

        #ditto

        This ain’t your grandpa’s weed.

  8. Hyperion

    STEVE SMITH NO CARE IF EVERYONE WHO HAS EVER HAVE VIDEO OR PHOTO OF CRYTID HAVE SAME FLIP PHONE MADE IN MEXICO IN 1992, ALL THAT REAL. IF YOU SAY NOT, STEVE SMITH NOT AGREE, AND BY NOT AGREE MEAN…

    • C. Anacreon

      How was STEVE SMITH in Wisconsin and he didn’t have a Town Hall? I thought all powerful beings had Town Halls whenever in the Dairy State.

      • Hyperion

        NEXT TIME STEVE HAVE TOWN HALL REVENGE AND BY REVENGE MEAN …

    • Trigger Hippie

      For what it’s worth, the only time I’ve ever found Jesse Jackson even mildly amusing was when he recited Green Eggs and Ham on a SNL skit.

    • rhywun

      Ugh Marxists are so fucking tedious.

      • commodious spittoon

        My hope is the current crop will one day be regarded like Carrie Nation or eugenicists.

        And of course no lessons will be learned, but we’ll get a reprieve.

    • Fourscore

      My kids loved the Dr (not Dr Jill) when they were little. My son pretty much memorized one of the books before he learned to read. I did too but not voluntarily.

    • commodious spittoon

      I’ve got a Roald Dahl set I bought and meant to send to my nephew for Christmas… two years ago… and never got around to, because I’m a bad uncle. But I’ve been a bad uncle to my sister’s kids for much longer, so to hell with that little twerp.

      But it occurs to me that maybe five isn’t a great age for Roald Dahl, anyway. I never heard of the guy when I was growing up. I bought it because my brother and I took a shine to Fantastic Mr. Fox when we were renting together. So now he gets to read the book to his kid whenever I get around to sending it, one of these years.

    • J. Frank Parnell

      I thought maybe they’d found his WWII cartoons, but obviously that would be giving them too much credit for putting some research and thought into their complaint.

      • Lachowsky

        Stimulus checks, no….

        Bombing.

        Read inside the dementia brain and it makes sense.

      • Plinker762

        I got it, but according to the comments I’m probably a Russian Bot too.

  9. Lachowsky

    If Biden starts a fucking war with Russia with his bullshit in syria, im gonna lose my shit.

    Fucking moron.

    • Stinky Wizzleteats

      Come on bro, what’s a couple of thousand megatons between friends?

      • Lachowsky

        Our foreign policy elite are suicidal.

        Or something

      • commodious spittoon

        They’re either riding the bull or they’re rodeo clowns trying to redirect it, I’m not sure.

      • Stinky Wizzleteats

        They’re riding the edge and cashing in but eventually they’re going to fuck it all up because they’re idiots. I wonder whether Putin et al are laughing at us or are terrified because we’re ruled by people who are detached from reality.

  10. KSuellington

    Presently out by the grill waiting for the jerk chicken to cook. I think this one is going to be awesome. I’ve been playing around with the recipe for six months now and this one could be the tops, it has the look and smell. The fresh ginger was looking wonderful this afternoon when I went to the produce mart so it got a nice fat piece. Ginger, lime juice, brown sugar, EVOO, allspice, green onions, ground clove, cinnamon, garlic and nutmeg. Can’t wait. Serving with garden salad, grilled baby bell peppers and sweet potato fries.

    • KSuellington

      And of course plenty of chopped habaneros in the marinade/sauce.

    • Tulip

      sounds really good

  11. Hyperion

    Hoping that Sukkoi19 from Charlestown is still around tonight and if not, hopefully we can catch up soon, maybe future neighbor.

    • Gustave Lytton

      I was a Glibertarian for the FBI

      • Hyperion

        No, you’re Tulpa.

      • Sukkoi19

        Yep still around. I was going to say if you didn’t already know that Jefferson county is the only county in West Virginia that has zoning. So if you run a business it may be something to consider. When I moved from Morgan County is quite the ordeal to get my FFL transferred because I had to jump through all of Jefferson Counties hoops.

  12. C. Anacreon

    That tune quickly got stuck in my head. It’s a good tune! Fire two blasts….buy a shotgun…

  13. "Tulsi Gabbard Apologist"

    Steve Van Zandt proving my point on the need for a universal draft with zero exemptions.

    https://twitter.com/StevieVanZandt/status/1365453270085472262

    “Too long a story for here. Let’s just hope we find a way to make amends to the Kurds who are one of our two true friends in the region and deserve their own country and who the malignant orangutan abandoned to be slaughtered after they defeated ISIS for us and the world.”

    Ah yes, remember when we first started bombing Syria in 2014 because of the Kurds, who were not involved in the Syria conflict until 2016 after US funded ISIS groups invaded Iraq. Steve obviously couldn’t even identify Syria on a map, let alone explain why we’re there. Do you think Steve would be so flippant about war if his kid was in Syria? No. Help Steve Van Zandt educate himself by giving his kids a one way ticket to the meat grinder!

    In a just world, Van Zandt and his neighbors would be on edge every time they watch the news, wondering whether or not they’ll ever see their kid again.

    • Master JaimeRoberto (royal we/us)

      How can we make amends to the Kurds? I thought they were all dead.

      • J. Frank Parnell

        Yeah, there’s no whey we can make it up to them.

    • Gustave Lytton

      In a just world, Van Zandt and his neighbors would be on edge every time they watch the news, wondering whether or not they’ll ever see their kid again.be shipping out to fill sandbags and dig fighting positions instead of practicing for the next E Street tour.

  14. Shpip

    That museum looks like a fun road trip. I’ll be heading to Wisconsin just as soon as I’ve mustard up the courage to tell the missus.

    She’ll either be green with envy, or hot under the collard. I hope she doesn’t kale me over this.

  15. Chafed

    Jeebus this has been a busy day. This is my first opportunity to get on the site. What did I miss?

    • hayeksplosives

      I think a bunch of people are on zoom. I’m not one of them.

    • Brochettaward

      I didn’t First today. You can go home now. Nothing else to see.

    • commodious spittoon

      Biden declared war on the middle east… Trump is still missing… Um, there was something about Clue?

    • Stinky Wizzleteats

      I got my dick caught in my zipper for the first time since junior high. Probably not that important in the scheme of things but it mattered to me.

      • hayeksplosives

        I feel for you but I admit I laughed at your description of it.

        “It mattered to me.”

      • Chafed

        You win Stinky. Sorry that happened. I recommend lidocaine and booze.

  16. hayeksplosives

    I got my ailing husband home and into bed. He has a fashionable walker now. Having a lot of trouble just getting in bed and turning over.

    It’s going to be a long road.

    He has a PICC line for continuing antibiotics at home for a while. I called the number they gave me for the nurse who’s supposed to have come out to show us how to use it.

    The number was for Hospice and Palliative Care. It would have been nice to have had someone tell me that in person. The lady who delivered the meds for me to put in the fridge also used the term “hospice.”

    I don’t know if that’s the short-hand for in-home care or what.

    If they’ve given up, I’m definitely getting a second opinion.

    • Gender Traitor

      OK, they shouldn’t oughta be using the “H” word willy nilly. I hope you get the straight story pronto.

      • hayeksplosives

        Yeah, tomorrow I will be making some calls.

        And he has a phone follow-up visit with his primary care doc, who has presumably been watching the incoming test results.

    • Tulip

      Wow, I hope they mean home care. I would be making a bunch of calls about that. Be a bitch. As another woman in a male dominated field, sometimes that’s the only thing they respect. You know how to do that. One colleague calls that the ‘mom’ voice. Like “shut up and color”

    • Tulip

      Yes, call about that and use your bitch voice. As a woman in a male dominated field, sometimes that’s all they respect.

      • hayeksplosives

        Thanks. They will definitely be hearing from me.

        My bitch voice is a special tone of finality that I learned from my father. It eliminates all doubt about whether I will be pulling out the big guns.

    • slumbrew

      JFC – I have to assume this is standard “cock-up over conspiracy” and just the usual institutional incompetence vs. a back-handed way of telling you something.

      Regardless, that’s a tough thing to hear – I’m sure you’ll straighten it out.

      • hayeksplosives

        I have a ton of questions but I didn’t hear from the doctors.

        He needs two things addressed after the immediate treatment and recovery: one is the dental work that was the likely entry for this infection, and the other is what to do about the heart valve.

        If they have no plans to address those things, then they’ve given up

        I haven’t.

        Even though he just crabbed at me for accidentally pulling the bedcovers from his shoulders when I crawled in. I just have to have patience and remind myself he’s in pain.

      • slumbrew

        Hah – I can sympathize – my wife is the worst patient in the world. She stresses my goodwill when I’m trying to take care of her.

        You’re doing the right thing and will get this straightened out. I choose to believe the best and you’re in my thoughts.

      • hayeksplosives

        ?

      • Chafed

        I strongly suspect slumbrew has it right. Hospice requires informed consent. It doesn’t sound like your hubby has recently been in any condition to make the decision which means they would have turned to you. Even if he was conscious and competent, they typically bring spouse/caregiver/closest relative into the discussion. This has all the hallmarks of a screw up.

      • hayeksplosives

        I reckon that makes the most sense.

        It’s definitely time for me to hear from the docs myself. I just logged into his record and see that they did an MRI. The MRI revealed clear lungs, stomach, pancreas, etc, a damaged liver (not surprising—he’s now quit drinking), but of concern is a spot on his kidney.

        The report seems to recommend further imaging to rule out the possibility of something serious, such as a “growth”.

        So there’s definitely a lot going on.

      • Chafed

        Nothing about this says hospice. There may be other issues but there isn’t anything you described that sounds terminal. Hospice is covered by Medicare. A doctor has to certify in their opinion the patient has six months or less to live. It sound like someone miscoded an entry or misunderstood some instructions. Sorry you are dealing with this.

      • hayeksplosives

        “I don’t want to go on the cart! I feel happy!”

  17. hayeksplosives

    On the plus side, I found a new product I love: Essential Baking brand sourdough bread.

    They come in vacuum sealed bags and have a long long shelf life. To use, you just open the bag and bake the loaf for 20 minutes.

    Hot delicious comfort food.

    • commodious spittoon

      Can I recommend

      wanton violence

      as well as

      verbal abuse

      I don’t have any recommendations re: bread

      Actually I do, it’s want

      • hayeksplosives

        I’m not going to worry about low carb tonight.

      • commodious spittoon

        Well as long as it’s wanton I suppose it counts.

  18. slumbrew

    I have actually been to goat-infested restaurant.

    Maybe not inside? It was many decades ago – a summer in Door County with my aunt, uncle & cousin (cousin and I are the same age, so I was the standard inclusion for trips with them).

    Not sure if we went in or not, but I remember the goats on the roof for sure.

    I _do_ remember my cousin almost caused me to break my goddamn back during that trip – playing “let’s lean back on the teeter-totter and force the other guy off the ground” (I’m not saying it was a good game) – he rolled off his side when I was at maximum elevation, leaning all the way back and I slammed into the ground. I was hobbling around like an old man for days.

    (we’re both now 50 year old dudes and that 40 year old story still comes up with regularity. That, and the time I hip-threw him into a wall while we were wrestling, a year or two later, during a trip to Disney World).

    • hayeksplosives

      More evidence that little boys and little girls tend to play games that are a bit different

      • slumbrew

        It was bonding with the brother he never had (though I think of him as my 3rd brother).

        He ended up being 5″ taller and probably 80 lbs. heavier than me, so that hip-throw was notable for being the last time I got him good…

  19. Gustave Lytton

    Walmart has a shitty website in both substance and thought. So just like their in person stores.

    Their web team needs to be flogged good and hard.

  20. Gustave Lytton

    On the plus side, stopped by sporting goods store on the way home. They had several calibers in stock including XM193 at 45 cents per. Not great but not bad. 2 box limit.

  21. Gustave Lytton

      Prevailing wage laws limit the ability of minority and low-skilled workers to enter the construction workforce by limiting the pool of contracting firms to those that can afford to bid on projects.

      So require hiring only minorities and low-skilled workers. I mean, this isn’t rocket surgery duh.

      • Fourscore

        I couldn’t afford my house if I had to pay someone to build it. As it was the costs were high but I was able to amortize the price over time, doing it myself. I’m guessing new zoning laws probably would prevent that.

        Youngsters are priced out of the market, not surprising that many move to the city and rent.

      • Plinker762

        A higher minimum wage will fix that.

      • Festus

        Sure, and every 2×4 will cost about ten bucks. It’s creeping up there as we speak.

  22. Tejicano

    Not being an Anime aficionado I just recently discovered something – maybe this is news to everybody or maybe I’m the last person on the planet to find out…

    The 1988 Anime movie “Akira” predicted that the 2020 Olympics would be scheduled for Tokyo but, due to a virus outbreak, it would be cancelled 147 days before the scheduled opening of the games.

    Life is strange.

    • Festus

      “Time is a flat circle.”

    • Cy Esquire

      Why is it the lame predictions that are always right and not the cool ones? Fly cars? Badass motorcycles? Moon bases? Matrix like VR? AI robot servants? Flying surfboards? Space elevators? Nano med tech? Genesplicing superhumans?

      • Festus

        All of the “Science” draws inward toward our screens rather than outward. People are dumb.

    • Cy Esquire

      Seriously, why did it have to be twitter? No one predicted twitter! It was always some all knowing entity or some shit they could reference on their little hand held or vocally. Not some shit filled bitch fest with a bunch of retarded Karens at a neighborhood BBQ on a multi-million person scale.

  23. Festus

    Damn. I always miss the fun stuff. Pee-pants, blue drink and the like. Working so much might have its benefits. Think the worst I ever did was pass out or maybe the time my nose bled and I doffed my shirt. Probably said something that pissed off Tulip?

    • Festus

      New York AG and AOC jockeying for position. I thought gulag Barbie would try for a Senate seat first.
